    Default Bug quilt for entomologist's new baby

    Bought this quilt kit years ago from Connecting Threads and finally had a recipient. A dear couple we know (she has her PHD in entomology) and befriended had their first baby in August. I made her several flannel "bug" quilts upon her birth, but this is for Christmas. Just have to get up the nerve and quilt it on my new Tiara II. Thanks for looking and suggesting any possible quilting ideas. I'm thinking of a large leaf in the plain squares, surrounded by a loopy filler. Still undecided on sashing and border designs. I'm fairly good at following a line design, just not in designing my own, sigh...........
